Homework Expectations

The primary purpose of homework is practice, an extension of the day’s work, time to work on long-term projects or an investigation of something for class discussion, not introduction of a new skill. Students should be able to complete it independently. If unable to complete an assignment independently, please notify your teacher. 7th—8th grade teachers work together as a team to plan for approximately one hour nightly, unless a student opts to take on extra courses or enrichment, such as language, algebra, music, band, etc.

Math and Science 11.20.14

MATH:  Students need to make sure they have finished Problem 2.3 (pgs. 36-39) and A.C.E.s 4, 5 and 6 (pg 45) out of the blue Connected Math book titled DATA DISTRIBUTIONS:  Describing Variability and Comparing Groups, for tomorrow.  

SCIENCE:  Students continued presenting their "Ecology" graphic organizers to their peers today.  Their increased content knowledge, creative projects and presentations continued to impress the audience.  There was no additional homework assigned tonight.
